Wine Enthusiast
Warming notes of allspice and charred cardamom lend spice to flavors of blueberry and black-plum preserves in this plush blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 10% Cinsault. (AI)

Plump and direct, with black cherry and anise notes mixed with a light dusting of garrigue through the silky, black tea-accented finish. (JM)

K&L Notes
Just across the Rhône river from the esteemed vineyards of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, this 88-acre estate is owned and operated by Rodolphe de Pins, a UC Davis graduate and former member of the winemaking staff at Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe. Montfaucon crafts their Côtes-du-Rhône to express the intense fruit characteristics of the appellation, blending to achieve harmony and balance.
